Orsus Uno Enables Bank Leumi to Launch Israel's First Wireless Financial Services Portal
URL(s): www.orsus.com
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif--Orsus Solutions, a leading provider of technology that aggregates, integrates and
delivers information to web and wireless users, today announced that Bank Leumi, one of Israel's oldest and largest banks, is using Orsus Uno(TM) to power
Israel's first wireless financial services portal. Using Orsus Uno, a comprehensive platform for rapidly creating and deploying web and wireless applications,
Bank Leumi is able to provide its mobile customers with access to 22 types of financial and personal banking services, including comprehensive information
for checking, savings and foreign currency accounts, in both Hebrew and English. Additionally, mobile customers are able to access credit card and loan
information, obtain foreign exchange rates, receive alerts and more.
Orsus' experience in the financial services sector brought to Bank Leumi a domain expertise and comprehensive technology that allowed the bank to
quickly implement a wireless financial portal, benefiting its mobile and wireless customers. Orsus' easy-to-use graphical design interface enabled Bank Leumi's
internal team to develop personalized applications for customer deployment after one week of Orsus' technical training.
"Bank Leumi is a highly valued customer. We are proud that within a short time we succeeded in providing them with the ability to adapt to the mobile
world quickly," said Aryeh Finegold, founder and chairman of Orsus Solutions. "The banking sector has unique demands, and Orsus is confident in its ability
to offer quick solutions to meet these demands."
Available to Orange and GoNext Customers
Bank Leumi wireless services are available to customers of Orange Israel and GoNext. Prior to the launch of the newly created banking portal, Bank
Leumi customers were limited to wireless access via Orange phones utilizing SMS technology. Now, customers of Orange and Israeli wireless operator
GoNext can benefit from wireless banking services, by simply accessing the bank's new wireless portal on the mobile Internet.
Orsus Uno
The Orsus Uno platform includes Uno Studio, an environment for developing complete web and wireless applications, and Uno Server, a scalable,
standards-based deployment server for Java and Windows. Professional and novice developers use Uno Studio's graphical process and interface editors to
prototype applications in hours and perfect them in days. Depending upon complexity, the accelerated deployment time assists organizations in meeting their
information needs without placing additional strain on IT resources.
Uno Server is built on a scalable Java architecture that is based on platform, data-access, web and wireless standards, and runs on Windows 2000, HP,
Sun and Linux servers. In addition, Orsus Server runs on J2EE appservers based on WebLogic/BEA, iPlanet, HP Bluestone, jBoss and JRun.
